Misk Foundation Empowers Saudi Youths To Influence Global Policies At UN General Assembly

Young leaders from Saudi Arabia, who have benefited from the Mohammed bin Salman Foundation (Misk) programs, recently took part in the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly. This event was held alongside the "Summit of the Future" in the US from September 20 to 23. The gathering marked a crucial step in global efforts to advance sustainable development goals (SDGs).

The Misk Foundation is committed to empowering Saudi youth by enabling them to represent their country at international forums. This includes promoting their initiatives and facilitating participation in significant global events. Misk's mission involves building connections between young leaders and global decision-makers, fostering innovative solutions for pressing international challenges, all aimed at achieving SDGs.

With Misk's support, Saudi youths have made notable contributions on prominent international stages such as the World Economic Forum in Davos and the Youth 20 Summit. The foundation is dedicated to equipping young leaders with essential skills and opportunities, empowering them to make a tangible impact on global platforms.

During the summit, Misk hosted a dialogue session titled "Youth Charter for the Future." This session focused on key issues identified by youths worldwide and explored how this charter aligns with SDGs. It emphasized turning policy frameworks into actionable outcomes, highlighting the importance of youth involvement in public policy-making processes.

Misk aims to increase the role of Saudi youths in public policy-making and highlight their contributions to resolving global issues. By building bridges between young leaders and decision-makers globally, Misk encourages innovative solutions that address pressing international challenges.

The involvement of these young leaders at such high-profile events underscores their growing influence and contribution towards achieving sustainable development goals. Their participation reflects Misk's commitment to fostering a new generation of leaders equipped to tackle global challenges effectively.

The foundation's efforts are crucial in ensuring that Saudi youth are not only present but also active participants in shaping policies that affect their future. By providing these opportunities, Misk ensures that young Saudis can contribute meaningfully to discussions on global issues.
